Does this mean I need to remove it to re-pair it? Will it know it was previously on the network?
No, no response now whatsoever, how do I exclude and add back?
Don't need to remove, just hit pair on the hub, and do the button sequence on the device to pair it again.
THANKS!!
This did the trick! Hopefully this isn't something I'll need to repeat this on a regular basis... The sensor is maybe 30 feet from my actual HE hub...
Aqara need a really good repeater. There are specific ones that work, and other repeaters that will not repeat for Aqara at all.
doesn't the sensor connect to the aqara hub, and that's what connects to HE? I would still say get a proper zwave contact sensor. it strengthens your zwave mesh and removes the need to rely on intermediary hubs
As @neonturbo wrote, the Xiaomi Aqara and Mijia sensors a finicky. They are a proprietary Zigbee and they donāt like a weak Zigbee mesh one bit. Thereās tons of info on the forum about them. Youāll find a lot with a search.
Some quick tips:
Add IKEA TRĆ DFRI outlets. They are compatible repeaters
Keep other non-compatible mains powered (repeating) Zigbee devices off your network
Keep all Zigbee lightbulbs (except for Sengled) off your hub. Only connected via a Hue bridge or another hub is going to be compatible with Xiaomi Zigbee devices
Try @markusā new drivers
I donāt have an Aqara hub
